Congratulations to everyone on their scores, and I hope you had a lot of fun over these last six and a half months!

As I mentioned before, I'm going to be taking a break for a few weeks. Work has been very stressful with the run up to NHL season... there's a lot of stuff in our building that is nowhere near ready, and it's been a very frustrating time trying to work around it for concerts and such (It doesn't help that we've had a heavy load of events too, with Keith Urban and Pearl Jam still to come before the first Jets game). Keep your eyes open in the regular Atari 2600 forum for something different that I've been wanting to do for a while... it's not quite High Score Club, but I think you'll all enjoy it just the same. I'm not sure when it'll happen, but I'm hoping for October 1st if things have calmed down by then. Season 10 will start after that is finished.

This is the last game of Season 9, so do your best!

After this week, I'm going to take a break for a while, as work is going to be total chaos as NHL season starts. I have something big I want to start up before Season 10 as well, so keep your eyes open!

Ze_ro, this is an FYI. I think Frostbite76 and Stan each need +2 points in the overall standings. I don't think Frostbite76 got his bonus for the "best tip" of week 11 (Fathom), and Stan was not allocated his "best tip" bonus for week 12 (Stargate).
Wow, nice catch, you're right! How on earth did you notice that?

Sorry about the late post... I actually had it all ready to go last night, but somehow forgot to post it before going to sleep... then forgot to post it again before going to work in the morning!

Very interesting variety pack. I was honing my Spike's Peak skills a few weeks ago just because I liked playing it. Let's see how it pans out in a competition. That game is downright TOUGH. No bonus for it? I'm kind of surprised because unless I just suck at it, it will be near impossible for most people to get a score above 10K.
Since none of these games have been played before, I didn't have much to go on for what the scoring will be. On Twin Galaxies though, someone managed to score 400k+, while Crypts and Sub Com topped out around 3-4k and Night Driver maxed at 80 (though the settings for ND and SC were not the same). Going by the manual, the actual scoring for Spike's Peak seems to be more generous for individual things than any of the other games.

It´s somewhat of a NTSC-exclusive theme in the later half of the season i guess? :P :)
(crypts of chaos, submarine commander, frontline, up n´down, mountain king, tapper, donkey kong JR.)
Sorry... I never really think to check if a game is available in PAL regions or not :(
